The 1949 Chateauneuf du Pape offers subtle oxidative qualities to go with caramel, furniture wax and orange liqueur-like aromatic qualities. Still kicking on the palate, with that Grenache-driven sweetness and texture, it’s more interesting at this point than pleasurable. I’m not sure if this estate produces one of the longest-lived Chateauneuf du Papes out there, or if it just seems that way due to the fact that they have such a fantastic library of old wines and I’m able to taste more of them! Nevertheless, Clos du Mont Olivet, which is now run by Thierry Sabon, is a brilliant estate that fashions traditional, age-worthy Chateauneuf du Papes that have incredibly broad drink windows.
